+One of the tests really put boxes on its knees:

+ $ echo "tests-unsupported += test-lfs" >> sysdeps/mach/hurd/i386/Makefile

+One can build libc this way:
+
+ $ mkdir build
+ $ cd build
+ $ unset CFLAGS
+ $ ../configure --prefix=/usr
+ $ make
+ $ make -C ../iconvdata objdir=$PWD subdir=iconvdata ..=../ $PWD/iconvdata/gconv-modules
+ $ make check -k

+One can run tests with the new libc by hand:
